WEST POINT LAKE IS FULL, STAINED & 54 DEGREES

Bass fishing is fair but it will be best after mid day. Most of the fish are spots being caught lake wide. The upper end of the lake is "silty" right now so go south to fish. The dam area up to the Maple Creek area is the best fishing spot. All of the fish are bunched up together in 25 to 30 feet of water, and you can catch a mix bag of fish vertical jigging on the bottom. Find the fish on your depth finder and then vertical jig using a 1/2 to 3/4 ounce spoon of your choice. With the bright sunny days, the bass will be a little sluggish. Those that are heading back into the creeks and coves are just getting a few small bites while throwing plastics. The bass are suspending in the channels and deeper water and move up early and late to feed. The bigger bass especially the spots want the bigger slower moving crank baits. Rocks, deep water and wind is the key thing to look for this week.
